Abstract
Institutions of higher learning across the country are failing student veterans in their academic journeys. This book offers a transformational approach for schools to dramatically change the way they currently serve their student veteran population and set conditions for them to thrive. In an environment of stagnating and declining enrollments, schools do not have or apply the necessary resources and framework for such an initiative. This book provides a workable roadmap that one individual can assess, develop, and execute to shape the way the individual institution supports its veterans.
